Retro fitting glow plugs.

(1/2) > >>

As suggested in a previous post, i need to fit some glow plugs to my Series hybrid. What would be the most simple way to wire them in? I'm thinking of just running them straight off the battery from a 30A fuse carrier and in to a switch on the dash then straight to the glow plugs. But i just want to make sure that by not using a relay i wont do any damage. Cheers in advance.

J.D.:
I would think that 30A is too much for a switch to handle. I would wire them in through a relay to a switch on the dashboad. use a wiring diagram for spotlights and substitute the spotlights for the glowplugs.

The switch wont be a problem, i have a battery cut off switch lying spare and was going to just use that. I cant be arsed to spend any more money on the bag of [!Expletive Deleted!] to be honest. :lol:

J.D.:
I see no reason why you couldn't do it that way then, you can wire them into the ignition as well.

 Good idea about the ignition, saves me wiring from the battery. Cheers mate.
